reasonable price at the workshop.
Scheduled as an evening workshop, participants will have their days
free to enjoy all of the delights that the Waccamaw Neck area of coastal
South Carolina has to offer in the late spring. Rich in history and
natural beauty, the Waccamaw Neck is bordered by the Intracoastal
Waterway and the Atlantic Ocean and offers such diversions as golf,
shopping, seafood restaurants, fishing, crabbing, shrimping, and of
course, wonderful beaches. Seventy miles to the south, you will find
the charm, history and architecture of Charleston. To the north, Myrtle
Beach offers the opportunity to experience another aspect of coastal
South Carolina, with resorts, attractions, shows and shopping. Plenty
of hotels, motels, and campgrounds are available in the area.
